Employee Salaries

The Employee Salary dataset contains payroll and position data, including: position description, department, FLSA status, pay range, pay grade and step (if applicable), bargaining unit, and base salary information. Each row contains relevant data for a single employee or vacant position. See the “Data Dictionary” file below for important definitions and notes.

Additional supporting files include the salary bands for each pay grade and step (if applicable) for the four labor groups (Boulder Municipal Employee’s Association – BMEA; International Association of Fire Fighters – IAFF; Boulder Police Officer’s Association – BPOA; Management / Non-Union – MGMT). Also included as a supporting dataset is a list of currently used job classes by labor group and grade. The core dataset is updated semi-annually and supporting datasets on an as-needed basis.
